It's completely new, and based entirely on PGP. The proofs are stored with your PGP key, so it's also decentralized. It doesn't have any amenities like chat or file storage – it only maps your social networks to a given PGP key. But I believe third parties (like Matrix) could step up and support it natively – all the benefits of Keybase, none of the drawbacks.
